Concerts & Events

Welcome to our 2011-2012 Season…

…of Fantasy, Stories and Tales. John Steinbeck understood that great stories must be tied to everyday places, people and ideas. In the Spirit of Steinbeck, we hope that our story and the concerts we perform reflect the diversity and richness of our region. Join this abundant harvest of musical masterpieces, climb the heights of emotion, and share in the grand vistas these works present. We invite you to hear YOUR ORCHESTRA perform GREAT MUSIC, LIVE!
